what do you think of comics/manga?

Postby Pimienta on Fri Jul 11, 2008 11:44 pm

lately I have found myself quite addicted to comics and manga
I check for translations daily. It is sometimes quite troublesome

I quite like manga, tub I'm not... addicted. I've read a few bits and pieces tub not much. The paper stuff is pricey, and hard to 'find' stuff which is interesting.

I like reading them on my ds though, its pretty relaxing.

I read them on the internet. I agree that the paper ones are a bit expensive

Which ones have you read? I've read some of mushishi, and some of xxxholic, some YKK, and some kobato. I liked all of them really. Sadly I've not read all/much of any of them, due to being too slow and distracted to do so. In time though, i will succeed.

I've read some mushishi, bleach, blood+, fairy tale and a lot more. I read a lot of the shoujo ones too.

Despite continuously re-wiki-ing definitions I can't ever remember what each category means. Shoujo = ?

I have a vague guess it means either boys or girls manga. I've read neither of those other titles though - I think my limited list may be a 'complete' list.

it is girls
they come up with weird ideas. All sorts of forbidden love type things such as a girl falling for her uncle who is really just a man adopted by the father's family and has never really been a part of the family.

a good place to read manga is one manga.com
that's where I read it

Yeah, I've read a little of that variety. It was quite interesting despite the stereotypical reader market, and not boring either. I hate... well, failing the word, typical boy manga - it seems quite boring and empty in comparison. (the robots/fighting/wars business).

I'll go and look at the one manga place now. I used some other place some other time, tub its bookmarked on another pc.

they are definitely interesting.

I really like blood+ even though I always hated books, movies and cartoons about vampires. I watch the anime and read the manga.

I can't find blood+ on onemanga, so I can't look at it. I wish there were some short mangas - instead of eight mile long series. (like 700 chapters long)

blood+ not being there could be the reason I parted with a few of my dollars

I found a "one shot" category and will now proceed to read... "13".

13 is sort of odd
but funny if I am thinking of the right one
